Hi folks, thought Id introduce myself, Im Steve from North Wales.
I used to drive an MG ZR http://zr172.cjb.nethttp://zr172.cjb.net lovely looking car, brilliant to drive, but nothing but problems which the dealer could not resolve, so I got rid of it and got a Clio 172 instead - liked the equipment level, love the power - feels a lot faster than my ZR which had 172 BHP also. Build quality feels a lot better, road handling better too. Part exed the ZR 51 reg for £7K and got a flame red clio with only 3.5k on the clock for £10.5K.
I only had the car a week when I was over taking a line of traffic, I had passed the back end of a Nissan Primera when they also decided to overtake and started pulling out. I hooted and jammed on, but they hit me and pushed me into the kerb - said "I didnt see you" when I angrily told them the car was almost new! Ive been driving around for a week with scuffed front wing, scuffed side of bumper, scuffed side of headlamp and 3 damaged alloys!!!
Im hoping the car will go in for repair soon ( I dont know whats taking so long ) and definitely hoping I wont be able to tell the difference after the respraying.
I was a very active member of the X-Power MG website, and hope to learn from, be able to give advice and have a laugh with others on here!
Catch ya later!
Steve H
